Museum of War Victims
Ho Chi Minh City Museum of Fine Arts
I suggest hitting the museum on a weekday if you can, it was way less crowded when I visited on a Tuesday. You’ll have more space to enjoy the art, I promise.
My advice is to take the time to explore the gift shop. They have some amazing local art and souvenirs that won’t break the bank. I grabbed a unique painting for a reasonable price!
Zia Long Palace
I recommend getting there around 9 AM to beat the crowds. After that, it fills up fast, and you can enjoy the exhibitions at your own pace.
Ho Chi Minh City History Museum
I think it's smart to start in the outdoor sections with the sculptures first. They are stunning and catching them early means you'll have better light for photos before the heat kicks in.
If you're on a budget, check out the museum's discounts for students and seniors. I saved a little cash for some local snacks later!
